Found this at another source:

Roseville Police Chief James Berlin didn’t take kindly to the name-calling and has no intention of tossing the ticket. “You see the disparaging comments he made about my officer?” the police chief told NBC. “Drop dead.”

Funny how they never hand out tickets there...

If the guy lives in Roseville, he should run for city council and then start working on getting the ordnance changed and the police chief fired. That’s the only way to deal with absurdity.

Amazingly, Detroit crime rates have dropped to the point that cops have time to worry about stupid stuff.

Support your local police. Any petty crime will do. Just make sure you’re white, and here legally.

He left the car unattended, it is against the law. Thus the ticket.

Worked just up the road from Roseville.

If you started your car and walked away from it, your car was gone!!!

Auto theft in,Roseville was only exceeded by auto theft in Hazel Park.

The point is this particular law was put into place for a reason.

I had a car stolen in Pontiac that I was letting warm up during the winter. That was 25 years ago, in -20 degree weather.

And the cops who took the report didn’t even offer me a ride home. A cold lesson to be sure.

Time to bring in sensible city council members to strike the law. The guy in question should run.

The “zero tolerance” mentality and “zero tolerance” rules not only are destroying Liberty, they are destroying rational thinking and common sense.

In this case, had anything untoward happened to anyone passing the driveway, due to some unforeseen event involving the unattended car, the courts are certainly able to handle any “negligence” suit without such “laws” that in the vast majority of time merely punish the innocent for doing nothing other than a rule. A rule made why? Because someone wants to make a rule.

There has been a similar ordinance in effect in Minneapolis for as long as I can remember. Opportunistic kids will grab a running car just to keep warm on the way to school. Happens all winter long.

In Hayward CA it`s against the law to repair your car in your driveway. So neighbors just switch driveways. Stupoid Haywired CA law.

I have been warming up unattended cars in driveways and even public streets for 60 years——I never even got a nasty comment,and certainly not a ticket.

If my car was stolen while unattended and idling in my driveway, you know what? I would never leave my car unattended and idling in my driveway again.

So what if you’re defrosting your windshield when its 10 degrees out, you’re supposed to sit inside the whole time?
